Introduction
Usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) is characterized by
temporally heterogenous parenchymal fibrosis with architectural distortion, interstitial thickening, fibroblast foci,
and honeycombing [1]. Although a defining pathologic
finding in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), it has been
found in other chronic fibrotic lung disease such as the
connective tissue-disease associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD) [2,3], chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) [4], sarcoidosis [5], and advanced asbestosis [6].

Current classification of the idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIP) allows not only pathological distinction of fibrotic disease, but implied characteristic clinical and
prognostic significance [7]. For example, it is well known
that UIP has worse prognosis than non-specific interstitial
pneumonia (NSIP), the two most commonly presenting
pathologies [8,9]. Both again may be idiopathic or associated with known etiologies, which has clinical significance
in terms of survival and response to therapy [10]. Prior
studies have suggested secondary UIP such as that seen in
certain connective-tissue diseases (CTD-UIP) may have
better prognosis and survival than IPF [2,10]. Other studies have been conflicting regarding better survival in difficult to diagnose CTD or all CTD-ILD [11,12]. Specific

Walsh et al, Thorax 2013 bronchiectasis when compared with patients assigned a diagnosis of fibrotic NSIP or deemed to have an indeterminate HRCT
pattern of disease (table 3). Honeycombing was identified in
21 cases (RA=10, SScl=3, MCTD=4, PM=0, SLE=3,
Sjögren’s disease=1) and was the least frequent pattern identified overall. Traction bronchiectasis was identified in 125 cases
(RA=33, SScl=22, MCTD=27, PM=26, SLE=8, Sjögren’s
disease=9). All 15 cases assigned a radiological diagnosis of UIP
had honeycombing and traction bronchiectasis on HRCT.
On univariable analysis, ground glass opacification was the only
parenchymal pattern, which was not associated with increased
mortality (table 4). Radiological diagnosis was strongly associated
with mortality (table 4, figure 4). On multivariable analysis,
increasing severity of traction bronchiectasis, increasing extent of
honeycombing and reduction in DLco independently associated
with increased mortality (table 5). These results remained independently associated with increased mortality on subgroup analysis
in patients with a radiological diagnosis of NSIP (and those with a
radiological diagnosis of UIP (see online supplementary appendix,
table 1)). On the basis of these results, the continuous traction
bronchiectasis scores and honeycombing scores for each patient
were converted to a simple binary absence/presence score.
Interobserver agreement for the absence/presence of traction bronchiectasis was good (κw=0.69) and for the absence/presence of
honeycombing was moderate (κw=0.50). A multivariable analysis,
substituting the continuous traction bronchiectasis and honeycombing scores for these binary scores again demonstrated that
the binary scores and DLco were the only variables independently
associated with increased mortality (traction bronchiectasis absent/

appears to have a more favourable prognosis than fibrotic
IIP.12 15 30 Despite these differences, our study has shown that
traction bronchiectasis and honeycombing are also important
predictors of mortality in CTD-FLD.
The prognostic strength of traction bronchiectasis in our
study is an important finding. Honeycombing is a cardinal
fibrotic pattern on CT and most studies have focused the prognostic impact of this pattern4 26 rather than traction bronchiectasis. However, the interobserver agreement for the
identification of honeycombing is surprisingly poor,31 32 best
highlighted by Lynch et al who reported observer agreement
levels for honeycombing among expert thoracic radiologists in a
cohort of 315 patients with IPF as scarcely acceptable for clinical practice (weight κ coefficient of agreement no greater than
0.31).4 More recently, Watadani et al specifically quantified
interobserver agreement for the presence of honeycombing
among a large group of thoracic and non-thoracic radiologists as
moderate (weighted κ coefficient of agreement=0.40–0.58).33
Disagreement was in most cases due to the presence of subpleural pathology mimicking honeycombing such as traction
bronchiolectasis, paraseptal emphysema and subpleural cysts.
These findings raise doubts as to whether honeycombing can
always be relied upon as a prognostic CT pattern in routine clinical practice. The results of our study support those of others
confined to IIPs3 5 9 and suggest that traction bronchiectasis
may be a superior alternative CT sign for prognostication purposes in the CTD-FLDs
Clinical applicability is an important consideration in a study
of this kind. The continuous traction bronchiectasis and honeycombing scores are not easily applied to clinical practice and
this led to the testing of a simplified binary absent/present score
of these two patterns. Our study shows that simply the presence
of traction bronchiectasis was a significantly more powerful
prognostic index than the presence of honeycombing.
Importantly, determining the absence or presence of traction
bronchiectasis had a higher level of observer agreement than

Pulmonary Function and Survival in Idiopathic

The usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern of lung injury may occur in the
setting of connective tissue disease (CTD), but it is most commonly found in the absence of a
known cause, in the clinical context of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Our objective was
to observe and compare longitudinal changes in pulmonary function and survival between
patients with biopsy-proven UIP found in the clinical context of either CTD or IPF.
BACKGROUND:
We used longitudinal data analytic models to compare groups (IPF [n 5 321] and
CTD-UIP [n 5 56]) on % predicted FVC (FVC %) or % predicted diffusing capacity of the lung
for carbon monoxide (Dlco %), and we used both unadjusted and multivariable techniques to
compare survival between these groups.
METHODS:
RESULTS: There were no significant differences between groups in longitudinal changes in
FVC % or Dlco % up to diagnosis, or from diagnosis to 10 years beyond (over which time,
the mean decrease in FVC % per year [95% CI] was 4.1 [3.4, 4.9] for IPF and 3.5 [1.8, 5.1] for
CTD-UIP, P 5 .49 for difference; and the mean decrease in Dlco % per year was 4.7 [4.0, 5.3]
for IPF and 4.3 [3.0, 5.6] for CTD-UIP, P 5 .60 for difference). Despite the lack of differences
in pulmonary function, subjects with IPF had worse survival in unadjusted (log-rank P 5 .003)
and certain multivariable analyses.
Figure 1 – A, B, Change in FVC% (A) or DLCO% (B) over time for sample stratified on clinical context of UIP. Points represent observed values, with
fitted (predicted) functions for groups (blue 5 IPF, red 5 CTD-UIP) superimposed; predicted means are solid, 95% confidence bands are dashed. Predicted values were obtained using mixed-model fits, using knots (ie, allowing change points) at 20.5, 0, 0.5, 1, and 2 y from diagnosis. A spatial power
covariance structure was included in the model to account for repeated measures within subjects; random effect terms for subjects were also included, as
described in e-Appendix 1. There were no significant differences between groups for segments between comparable time points. The plots demonstrate
sharper declines near time of diagnosis for both groups. CTD-UIP 5 connective tissue disease-related usual interstitial pneumonia; DLCO% 5 % predicted diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide; FVC% 5 % predicted FVC; IPF 5 idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
Despite no significant differences in changes in pulmonary function over time,
patients with CTD-UIP (at least those with certain classifiable CTDs) live longer than patients
with IPF—an observation that we suspect is due to an increased rate of mortal acute exacerbations in patients with IPF.

Among subjects whose last PFT observation was within
100 weeks of diagnosis, there was no significant difference between groups in the proportion of subjects who
died (IPF, 74% of 184 vs CTD-UIP, 69% of 29, P 5 .63);
however, among those whose last observed PFT was
! 100 weeks after diagnosis, there was a difference
between groups (IPF, 68% of 132 vs CTD-UIP, 42% of
26, P 5 .01). In the unadjusted analysis, survival was
significantly longer in CTD-UIP than IPF (log-rank
P 5 .003) (Fig 4). Median survival was 7.1 years (95% CI,
4.6-11.3) for CTD-UIP and 4.4 years (95% CI, 4.1-5.2)
Nearly one-half of the subjects in each group (IPF or

ever, patients in these series had interstitial lung involvement of
predominantly mild-to-moderate severity.
Statistical analysis
Evidence for the effectiveness of rituximab as ‘‘rescue’’ therapy
in patients with severe, life-threatening ILD is limited [20, 21].
We report the use of rituximab as rescue therapy in eight
patients with underlying features of CTD, and exceedingly
severe fibrotic lung disease, progressing in spite of vigorous
conventional immunosuppression.
METHODS
Patient groups
Review of our medical records and hospital pharmacy prescribing database identified all patients treated with rituximab
between December 2007 and December 2010. All consecutive
patients with severe, progressive CTD-ILD were included in our
analysis, with a total of eight patients. No patients with CTDILD were excluded due to poor outcome or early death. A
minimum of 9 months post treatment follow-up was available
for all patients. ILD occurred in association with polymyositis or dermatomyositis (PM/DM) in five patients, of whom
four had anti-synthetase Jo-1 antibody. In two patients, ILD

All patients had PFT follow up of at least 9 months following
rituximab. In the six patients with PFT data prior to rituximab
treatment, the significance of median DL,CO and forced vital
capacity (FVC) percentage change before and after treatment
was assessed by Wilcoxon signed rank test. To evaluate
statistical significance of response to treatment in all patients,
categorical variables of change (worse, stable, improved) were
generated by combining significant changes in pulmonary
function tests (defined as a change in FVC of o10% and/or a
change in DL,CO of o15%) and/or clinical status (for the two
patients requiring mechanical ventilation, the requirement for
mechanical ventilation was classified as a significant deterioration). Change was assessed 9–12 months before and after
rituximab, and analysed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test.
A p-values of o0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Analysis of follow-up data at 9–12 months was chosen based
upon previously reported responses of CTD-ILD to rituximab
[18, 19], and the expected duration of B cell ablation following
rituximab [10, 15].

7 that a subset of this patient population may eventually meet the criteria for a well-defined CTD. These
findings demonstrate that identification of subtle CTD clinical features, when associated with presence of
auto-antibodies, do impact on the clinical and imaging presentation of ILD and are associated with distinct
attributes. In other words, subtle manifestations of CTD should be considered in a patient evaluated for
ILD, even if overt CTD criteria are not fulfilled.
In another study, CORTE et al. [6] elegantly demonstrated that the proportion of patients with idiopathic
interstitial pneumonia that fulfil UCTD criteria is dependent on the criteria used (table 3). Using ‘‘broad
criteria’’ [5], UCTD could be diagnosed in 36% of patients with IPF and in 71% of patients with NSIP,
whereas UCTD was considered to be present in only 13% and 21%, respectively, of the same patients groups
using the more stringent criteria of UCTD [40]. The presence of UCTD was associated with a higher
frequency of NSIP histopathology [6].
18/04/15 In a recent study, FISCHER et al. [17] suggested the terminology of lung-dominant CTD to account for the
subset of patients with interstitial pneumonia who have clinical features suggesting an associated CTD, but
the features fall short of a clear diagnosis of CTD under the current rheumatologic classification systems.
The proposed provisional criteria for this condition include four criteria: 1) a histological or radiological
pattern of NSIP, UIP, lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia, organising pneumonia or diffuse alveolar
damage; 2) insufficient extra-thoracic features of a definite CTD to allow a specific CTD designation; 3) no
identifiable alternative aetiology for interstitial pneumonia; 4) any one of a list of auto-antibodies or at least
two of four predefined histopathology features (lymphoid aggregates with germinal centres, extensive
pleuritis, prominent plasmacytic infiltration and dense perivascular collagen). Such provisional conceptual
classification carries the advantage of setting the stage for future studies of the prognostic, therapeutic and
pathobiological implications of CTD features in patients with ILD. However, the proposed criteria need
further refinement based on evidence, especially since they imply that patients may be classified as having

Although the frequency of UCTD was three times
higher in the NSIP than in the UIP pattern, our current
study showed that in patients with ILD and UCTD, the
UIP pattern was as frequent as or more frequent than
the NSIP pattern, which was consistent with the findings
of Vij et al7 (25 UIP pattern vs two NSIP pattern among
63 patients with autoimmune-featured ILD). We also
confirmed that among the patients with UCTD, the
overall prognosis was better for patients with the
NSIP pattern than those with the UIP pattern, although
not significant on multivariate analysis. Furthermore,
Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed a significant
difference between UCTD-UIP and IPF; the presence
of UCTD in the patients with the UIP pattern was a
significant independent prognostic factor on multivariate analysis. Previously, Corte et al4 reported that
UCTD was not associated with a survival benefit, which
may be due to smaller numbers (total 101 patients) of
the subject compared with ours. Recently, Strand et al21
also reported that there was no significant difference
in survival between UCTD-UIP and IPF. However,
the number of their subjects was small (UCTD-UIP:
